Pearl was the daughter of James Thomas Haile and Mary Beaver Hodges. She married her second cousin William Jesse Hodges on January 18, 1905, in Dickens Co, TX on the Matador Ranch in the home of her sister Mary Thomas Haile Sampson. William Jesse Hodges was the son of Solomon George Hodges and Mary Elizabeth "Mollie" Farmer.

Pearl was a poet, musician, artist, and often cared for members of the family when they needed her help. She and her son Adgie entertained people in several nursing homes in the Winters, TX area. Many of her poems tell of events in her life and provide information about the family. She played the piano, harmonica, accordion, and spoons. She had hip replacement surgery at 90 and lamented the fact that they would not allow her to practice her accordion in the hospital.
